"Getting soft! Pshh." He made a 'pshh' motion with his hands to match his words. "I got you the stupid papers like you wanted anyways." He pouted, grabbing his backpack and unzipping it. Inside was a manila folder with papers contained within. He slipped out the folder and placed it on the table. "There you go, information on the guys that could have framed me." He crossed his arms and looked to the side out of the small booth. He saw Dawn eating happily and was satisfied that she wasn't paying attention. Jin was happy at the presentation of the paper, so much so that he quickly grabbed it.

"When did you get this?" He asked speculatively. "You didn't go anywhere when you decided to leave. You just took off taking your stuff with you." He opened the folder and nodded at the contents. Happy, he gave it back to Taehyung who put it safely into his backpack again.

"Well, I got it from behind the counter at some police station here in Pheonix. Not sure why it was, but the South Korean government might have sent it here so that they could see if any of the suspects moved out of Korea." He explained, taking a sip of his beverage.

"Makes some sort of sense." The pink haired man sitting across from Taehyung said. "Anyways, where is this 'Dawn'?" Taehyung stood, and motioned for the man to follow. He grabbed his backpack and his drink and walked to where the woman was sitting. He slipped into the seat beside her and smirked.

"Hey, there you are. Hurry up so we can get going to the airport." He said putting his drink down and keeping one hand gripping onto the strap of his backpack. "Does look good though." He admitted while snatching a fry from her and popped it into his mouth. He licked his lips and tasted some salt that clung to them. The fry was nice and crispy, as well as being warm. "Thanks for your gracious donation." He smirked and took another fry, meeting no resistance. He shook off the hunger he was feeling, as he hadn't really eaten much all day besides half a protein bar and a bagel. Jin finally walked over with a duffel bag slung over one shoulder and gripped Taehyung by the wrist. "What's this all about?" He said looking up to the older man.

"We should go. And is this the girl you mentioned? She's quite pretty, not surprised you picked her up." He said smiling. "Hello, my friend here tells me that you two met only a few hours ago. Perhaps you could elaborate on the plane." The older man looked to Dawn and smiled brightly. "Why don't you get that to go, and we head to the airport? Also, did I mention you're going to need to ditch your car?" He said now tilting his head to the side and frowning slightly. "We can't be easily traceable. Your vehicle is much too easy to identify."

[Trots]

Dawn Lee

She perked up, hearing her name from a few booths away. Her body shifted in her seat as she turned to see Taehyung walking over. She let him sit next to her, but when he started to take some of her fries, she giggled sense her puppy began to growl protectively over the food he thought was his. She looked to the man with the pink hair, smiling a little to be kind. His comment about her being 'pretty' made her scoff in her head. Her cheeks reddened though she didn't seam to notice or care. "Yeah. I can explain more to you on the flight." She looked over to see the woman coming at the right time. She set down pork for her dog in a small little plastic box.

"Here you go... Do you need anything else, Miss?" She stood straight, looking to the two men now around her.

"Just a check, please."

"Of course. I'll be back in a moment." The old woman made her way to the counter, waiting for the small slip to print. Meanwhile, Dawn finished her sandwich in moments, deciding she could feed her dog in the airport and or on the flight. She put the rest of the fries in the small plastic box with the pork and she listened to him about the car.

"Fine with me. I didn't pay for it. The Police Station owns it. I just 'borrow' it." She pushed her plate off a little, looking up to the woman who came back, handing her the receipt and a pen. Dawn set the paper on the desk and signed her name, handing it back. She reached in her pocket and handed her a 20$ which should've covered the whole pay. "Thank you."

"You too, Miss. Have a nice day."

Dawn stood, holding her puppy in one hand. He wagged his tail, sniffing the pork, but knew he had to wait. She carried the box in the other. "I need to grab my bag from the car. That's all I need from it." She looked down to her little canine who was sniffing Taehyung's arm in interesting, gently gnawing on his hoodie. She did nothing sense he didn't look to mind.

.... ---- == MEANWHILE == ---- ....

(At the Police Station)

Her coworker pulled up into the driveway, seeing that her car wasn't there, he frowned. He opened the door to his car and closed it behind him once he got out. He paced himself, knowing everything was probably alright. "She probably just went home... She had a long night... Yeah..." He thought to himself, knowing she was strong so nothing probably happened. As he approached the door, he grabbed the handle, and found it unlocked.

"Umm...." He opened it, his hand gripped on his gun which he pulled out in moments. His finger was shakily on the trigger in case someone jumped at him. He looked down the halls as he passed them, making his way to where Dawn had been with the prisoner. "Dawn, are you there?" He kept his voice broad and loud. He wanted her to hear. After a few moments, he heard nothing. He quickened his pace to the small room with the prison cells. Once he reached the dim room, his eyes widened in shock. The cell was empty. The prisoner was gone. Dawn was gone. His mind became bombarded with thoughts of what could've happened to his friend, but once he glanced to the desk, he calmed. Her writing was upon it, so he took a step closer, reading it to himself. He frowned afterwards. "Well we just lost a great officer... and a wanted criminal." He looked to the cell, still shocked of his ex-coworker. "Why would she let him escape?"

.... ---- == BACK TO BEFORE == ---- ....

She made her way out to her car, opening the door. She reached over, grabbing the only bag she was planning on taking. She locked the car, threw the keys inside, and closed the door. "Alright. Ready to go." She looked to the two men, a small smile on her face. She felt free in a way, not having to worry about what her boss would think, nor her parents. Or what her coworkers would say about her absence. She could do what she wanted in Korea. Not break the laws of course, but she could start fresh.

Taehyung looked down to see a small dog gnawing on his sweater. He did nothing, but ignored it, trying not to seem weak. Though, in his mind he was freaking out that such an adorable creature was right there. He scowled when Jin chuckled at seeing his old friend trying to with hold his desire to hug cute things. "Come on you two. I've got your bag here Taehyung." He chucked a duffel bag at the other man and chuckled again at seeing him step backward in surprise. "Why do you even have so many headbands? Your hair doesn't even cover your eyes. Also, why are there so many dog stuff-" He was cut off when Taehyung slapped a hand across his mouth.

"Anyways, SeokJin will drive. It's just that white car over there." He gestured to a small white car across the parking lot. Jin gingerly moved the hand from his mouth and smiled. "Don't you dare say a word to anyone hyung." He said looking at the older man with pleading eyes.

"Why would I? It's perfect bribe material for later." He winked and began to walk over to the car, with Taehyung following behind. He looked back to see if Dawn was following him, and saw she was packed up. He slightly smiled and gestured for her to follow him; he then turned back towards the white car, now only a few steps away. "Surprised you let go of that car so quickly. Though, it would be troublesome to keep since it's a police owned car." Jin said, trying to make small talk while checking the car to make sure everything was in order.

"It's not that nice." Taehyung said while throwing his bag in back and slinging into the seat beside the driver's.

"You only say that because you always used to buy those little toy cars back home." Jin said laughing and turning on the car. Taehyung pouted, but Jin just shrugged it off. "Hey! Get over here! We've got a plane to catch!" He said while turning towards the direction of Dawn.

Meanwhile) In Seoul, South Korea...

The brown haired man took the dusty frame off of it's shelf and smiled at the contents under the glassy surface. He traced a finger over the faces in the picture and slightly pouted at the layer of dust that now coated his finger. He wiped it off on his hoodie, and used the sleeve to rid the picture of the rest of the dust that was on it. Once the picture was restored, he had to wipe a small tear from his cheek. He turned the frame over and saw the date written on the back; It was way back to when they were in high school. He flipped it back over. It was a picture of two boys with their arms slung over each other's shoulders in their black uniforms. Both were smiling, and looked as if they didn't care about anything going on around them. "Why'd you have to just leave..." His voice was weak, and cracked slightly. "It's not fair." He bit his lip when he saw a small droplet of wetness drop onto the picture, and roll down as he covered his face with one hand and loosely held the item in his other. He slowly put the picture back where it was before, and grabbed a newspaper that was on the table in the corner. The headline read "Bright Young Man Turned to Crime?" The whole article was lies to Jimin. None of those things were true, because his best friend would never do anything like that. He'd never kill anyone; and had never punched a single person in his entire life. It couldn't be true... it couldn't.

[Trots]

Dawn Lee

"I'm coming, i'm coming!" Dawn sighed and ran over, holding the puppy in her right arm and her backpack in the other. She looked to Jin and smiled. "Sorry if I'm a burden to your 'plan' with leaving, but thank you anyways." She decided to sit in the back sense they were sitting in the front. She opened the back door and tossed her bag inside. She sat in the empty seat left where no bags were filled and she set her dog on her lap. She looked to Taehyung for a moment before looking away. She closed the door she entered through and she sighed. "Which airport are we going to?" She wasn't sure why she asked that question. There was only two airports in the whole city. So there was only two choices unless they decided to go the hard way, but by the thought, ... was rushing her. She shook her head and shrugged. "Sorry. I don't need to ask that." She sighed, and looked down at her dog who began to sniff Taehyung's arm. He tried to crawl over into the front, wanting to sniff around more, but she slowly pulled him back. She didn't want to bother the two men. Her eyes drifted to her phone and she put in her earbuds. She put one in her ear and turned on her iTunes for the drive. She kept one off in case one of them wanted to talk to her or ask her any questions. She wasn't one for tons of small talk or big conversations, so she hoped they wouldn't ask her too much. Anyways, she had the plane to do all that where she'd be bored out of her mind for hours on end, right? Yep. She hated planes. It was one of the things she hated the most, but she could manage if it meant getting away from her life. She saw nothing in the city that was worth staying for. She leaned back in the seat, finding it quite comfortable, and she looked out the window.

(Sorry for it being short. Need to catch up :3)

(Timeskip to the plane)

Taehyung was tapping the screen of his phone case trying to remember the answer to the questions he was being attacked with. He swiftly answered the question and let out an exasperated sigh when he was wrong. "Aish..." He said while leaning back in his seat and dropping his phone onto his lap. The tired man next to him elbowed him angrily and reminded him he was trying to sleep. "Alright, alright. Sleep hyung." He said smirking at the man that rolled his eyes and turned his head in the other direction. Taehyung adjusted in his seat and found a comfortable position. He looked out the window and saw the city below him slowly getting larger. They were about 15 minutes from landing back in Seoul airport, and he was ecstatic. Finally being home he felt a sense of relief. He felt a pain in his chest when he remembered here he was wanted for murder. Then he remembered that they would be landing there and would be quickly ushered out by Jin's contact. Apparently he had to pay him a lot to get this ride and a safe place to stay, so his hyung would probably bother him about it for quite some time.

Speaking of the older man, he had now given up on sleeping and was on his phone. His attention was then drawn to a man in a black suit that was walking to the back of the plane. He seemed annoyed with the flight attendant behind him. "I don't get why anyone would come to this country. It's riddled with criminals. Here, look, there's even murderers on the loose! And don't even get me started on the other safety concerns. It's next to North Korea for example..." He kept ranting off and the woman shrugged and rolled her eyes. The observing man also rolled his eyes. He was glad to be in South Korea, it was after wall his birthplace. Even though it was the place that he dreaded the most. No, that was a lie, he dreaded having to see Jimin again after just up and leaving. Or the fact that he had gotten into a fight with Jungkook, a known gang member who hated him. He sighed and fiddled with his sweatshirt strings.

Jin looked at him with sympathetic eyes, sensing the younger man was anxious. "Hey, don't worry about Jimin. Sure you did just up and leave but the two of you are as close as anyone can be. But, Jungkook is a gang boss now so that's new." He said while facing forward again and resting his head on the back of his seat.

"Really? He's a gang boss? But he's not even that old, what 18?" Jin then looked back at Taehyung and shook his head.

"Remember you've been gone for two years, he's 20 now. But you're right, he's still very young."

"Yeah. 20 years old... jeeze." Taehyung said while remembering the young punk who would always bother him. He chuckled a bit and looked over to Dawn, who was on the left of Jin. "How're you holding up? And don't worry about your dog, like I said a few hours ago he's going to be at the place we're staying.
